If you want to make sure your Windows 7 PC is secure, you have a lot of homework to do. But what if there was a tool that could do some of the work for you – automatically?

We’ve had a pretty darn long list of useful Windows 7 registry tweaks – but it’s quite painful to download them one by one, so simply download this tool and you can apply a lot of the tweaks with one click.

Let’s take a look at what it can do to help you. And believe me, this list is quite long. It can disable a lot of controversial Windows 7 services for example prefetch, net crawling, pagefile at shutdown and much more. To make Windows 7 a bit more secure it can disable services such as Telnet, often used for exploits, or prevent to show a computer name in your network, but it can also tweak a lot of Internet Explorer settings. For example, the tool can rename UPLDDRVINFO.HTMl or disable ActiveX.
